The truck itself is fabulous and wonderfully contrasted against the foliage. The road right beside it is a wonderful setting - so near, yet so far for the truck. Nice enough HDR conversion - I would've cropped out the sky completely though - looks very unreal and distracting.

Nice shot, my eye keeps going to the (over) burned sky though. otherwise I like it.

nice country road scene, the processing left some halos that distract some but the focal point looks nice

Cool old truck. I like the perspective with the road winding off in the distance.

When processing a shot like this, be sure to carefully watch the sky. It seems like this was shot early morning or late evening, which can make the whole process a bit more difficult, but you'll definitely want a more natural sky to score higher.

Nice choice of subject and setting. Though I like it in colour I think this image could be great in black and white. That patch in the sky is slightly distracting. I imagine that's an effort to scrub away an overexposed sky but maybe a gradient would work better.

Nice HDR. it could use a little more black (ie: more contrast) but the colors are great
